So this was supposed to be in a crust- like a cheese cake, but I don't have a spring form pan, so I decided the filling would be yummy and if I want the crust I can make it an then crumble it on top! Or serve
each slice on a loose crumble of the crust as garnishment under the pie!

Here's the recipe:

Mousse
3 each egg yolks
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Chill-Over
4 each egg whites
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 each lemons zest and juice
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Shortbread Crust
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 each egg
1 1/4 cups flour, all-purpose

Directions
mousse: In large shallow bowl, mix yolks with sugar, water, salt, Chill-Over, and cornstarch

Whip constantly over boiling water until thick and lemon
colored.

Remove from heat.

Add strained lemon juice and zest.

Cool to room temperature; reserve.

Whip egg whites with 1/4 cup sugar to soft peaks.

Temper yolk-lemon mixture with large spoonful of whites.

Fold in remainder; reserve.

Whip cream with 1/3 cup sugar.

Fold into reserved lemon mixture.

Pour into 10-inch springform pan with shortbread crust.

Chill 2-3 hours.

Remove from pan.

Garnish with lemon twists. Cut into 8 slices. Serve with
caramel sauce, if desired.

shortbread Crust: Whip butter with sugar and salt until light and smooth.

Add egg, then flour. Whip until fluffy.

Spread into 10-inch springform pan.

Bake at 300 degrees F for 10 minutes. Cool.
